Nowadays, the Air Force, which has received much attention, has sufficient financial resources and economic foundation to support the purchase of up to 200 FC-20 Qingjiaos, and in the future can meet the consumption and maintenance of 200 Qingjiaos for simultaneous combat readiness. .
However, it faced an unavoidable problem - lack of pilots.
A pilot who is mature and qualified to fly third-generation fighter aircraft needs to be trained in units of 100 million, with a cycle of four to six years. He is absolutely not for sale in the Air Force and is a high-end combat arm of modern warfare.
As for buying a pilot?
There was no room for negotiation or even mention of this idea.
Just like when you propose to buy someone's young, virtuous and beautiful wife for a kiss on the street, a normal man with a temper will be stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then call you a psychopath.
If it is a grumpy old man, he will give you a loud slap in the face, and then enter the rampage mode of beating and scolding at the same time, performing a wonderful full-scale martial arts show.
Of course, there are certain attributes called scumbags or prodigal sons in this world, and it is not ruled out that the air force of any country also has the attributes of scumbags and prodigal thinking.
Although the probability is small, there is a situation where the child sells Ye Tian without feeling distressed, but it does exist.
However, as a top-level air force, the Chinese Air Force is by no means a prodigal, let alone a short-sighted idiot or a scumbag.
"At present, everyone agrees to purchase, but there are differences on the quantity. Taking into account the objective factors of the lack of pilots, and the fact that the Qingjiao has been tested in actual combat and performed perfectly, plus this is a fighter jet that is 100% independently developed and produced by China, so there is no need to worry about being stuck. Neck, I think we can purchase 50 Qingjiaos in the second phase of the military purchase plan and select an advanced training aircraft. What do you think?"
Looking around at everyone with somewhat cloudy eyes, the old soldier collected his thoughts and spoke slowly.
"Secondly, we currently need to focus on establishing a complete training system for pilots. The quality of the pilot team has seriously declined. The 24 pilots in charge of Bavino are the best 24 in the team, but they still cannot meet the standards."
50 FC-20 'Qingjiao', two Western system standard fighter squadrons, the number is reduced by 50 from 200. This is currently the most suitable procurement number for the entire Air Force, and it is also the limit.
In the category of more than 50 aircraft, the purchased Qingjiao fighters are unmanned, which is a waste of precious military expenditures and military resources.
"50? I agree."
"I agree."
"I agree, 50 Qingjiaos, plus the first batch of 20 Qingjiaos and the remaining 3 Bluebirds, can maintain a total of 73 third-generation semi-fighters. In the future, we no longer have to worry about the British Typhoon and Brazilian forces in the Falklands. Mirage 3 fleet, I can’t wait to see the scene of Qingjiao flying past the USS St. Paul aircraft carrier battle group at low altitude.”
"I also agree that regarding the selection of specific models of advanced trainer aircraft, I think it can be left to Bavino. However, can we reserve the intention to purchase more Qingjiao fighter jets from China? And the right of priority supply." Proposed the purchase of 200 The soldier flying the Qingjiao fighter said slowly.
"Bavino's priority in supplying goods? This suggestion can be adopted, it is very good." The old soldier was thoughtful, pondered for a moment, and responded: "In addition, the salvage work of the two Typhoon wreckage must be given top priority. , have you notified the Chinese Air Force?"
"Notice, we are using the country's most advanced salvage ships, the Navy's guided-missile destroyers USS Admiral Brown and USS Helena to escort us, and are heading towards the crash area."
Admiral Brown and USS Helena are German-made M0EK360-class general-purpose guided missile destroyers. They originated in the last century. They have a full load displacement of 3,000 tons, a speed of 27 knots, and are equipped with anti-ship missiles and a helicopter.
These two 3,000-ton missile destroyers are already the two best-in-service warships in the Argentine Navy, accounting for 50% of the conventional cutting-edge maritime combat force.
Since the decommissioning of the Mayflower light aircraft carrier, the entire navy has only four old and overwhelmed guided missile destroyers to support the facade. Looking at the Brazilian Navy's Sao Paulo aircraft carrier battle group in the distance, we are drooling.
"That's good. If we want to get priority supply rights, the wreckage of these two Typhoon fighter jets is our certificate of submission."
The old soldier breathed a sigh of relief, nodded with satisfaction, and said slowly: "Okay, everyone, the content of this meeting is the Air Force's top secret level. The second phase of the arms sales procurement plan is codenamed 'Aconcagua'. It is strictly forbidden to leak any information." With the information about this plan, the rise of the Argentine Air Force depends on you.”
The wreckage of the fighter jets is the certificate of submission. Argentina’s aviation industry is too weak. It does not have a complete industrial foundation and equipment, as well as talents and key technologies. It is simply unrealistic to obtain anything from the wreckage of the two Typhoon fighter jets.
It's useless if you put it in your hands. It's better to make a certificate of submission, salvage it directly and give it to China. It will be regarded as a favor and get priority supply rights and friendship.
friendship!
A precious friendship is too rare.
"yes!"
The other four people replied in unison.
The brief but important top-secret meeting ended. The 'Aconcagua' top-secret military plan, named after the most majestic mountain range in South America, entered the implementation stage, which is related to the future of the entire Air Force.
purchase!
Purchase more FC-20 'Qingjiao', so that this advanced fighter that breaks the typhoon myth can soar in the skies of Argentina, the skies of the South Atlantic, and the skies of South America!
The miserable days of relying on 20 Pukara propeller attack aircraft are about to pass, and a new and hopeful happy time is about to come.
…
More than 20,000 kilometers away.
Northern Hemisphere, Southwest, Chengdu.
The weather was gloomy and dark clouds were gathering.
It is the cold winter, and the gentle cold wind, which seems to contain magical damage, is howling wildly throughout the city, constantly causing chaos. The cold makes pedestrians wearing winter clothes shiver on the road and do not want to stay for a moment longer.
The cold in the south is, as always, extremely lethal, no matter how thick your clothes are, it will be useless.
"What, Lingfei Qingjiao shot down two Typhoons! Uh... During the battle, he also used an aerial cannon to destroy an AIM-9X? Pufferfish, are you sure about the news?"
Lin Jian, who was staying in his personal office, held a satellite phone with multiple encrypted communication channels in his hand. When he learned the news reported by Captain Fugu, he was a little confused, his eyes widened, and there was a hint of shock.
On the clean and tidy desk, there is a cup of bamboo leaf green tea that emits light white heat.
Lin Jian had just brewed his favorite tea and was about to drink it, when a satellite phone call from the commander of the instructor team going to Afghanistan broke his short leisure time.
This kid Zero shot down two Typhoons in the export fighter FC-20X 'Qingjiao'?
Also used aircraft cannon to intercept an AIM-9X missile launched by an enemy aircraft?
This shocking news made Lin Jian, who had experienced all kinds of storms, feel a little dazed.
